Steam Drum Drying for Crease Removal and Water Supply Control

The patent applies parameter changes by introducing steam (changing the physical state of water) and controlling temperature and humidity parameters during the drying process. The steam generation unit generates steam that is supplied to the drum interior, transforming the drying environment from conventional hot air to a controlled steam atmosphere, which effectively removes creases while maintaining drying efficiency.

The patent utilizes phase transitions by generating steam from water through heating. The steam generation unit converts liquid water into gaseous steam, which then condenses on the clothes during drying, providing moisture that helps remove creases. This phase transition mechanism enables effective crease removal without compromising drying speed.

The patent applies self-service by implementing automatic water level detection and control. The water supply device includes a water level sensor that automatically detects when the water tank is full and stops water supply, eliminating the need for manual monitoring and complex control mechanisms. This self-regulating system simplifies operation while maintaining effective water supply capability.

The patent uses feedback control through a water level sensor that continuously monitors the water level in the water tank and provides feedback to the control unit. When the water level reaches a predetermined level, the sensor signals the control unit to stop water supply, creating a closed-loop control system that manages water supply automatically without adding operational complexity.
